For example, when buying a phone from France, you can get a bonus.
It would be wrong to say that with parallel imports, iPhones from different countries poured into Russia – the market for “gray” iPhones worked perfectly well until 2022. An iPhone is an iPhone in Africa too. But there are nuances.
Check the list before purchasing a new Apple device.
We learned about regional differences between smartphones of the American brand here. The most important limitation that concerns all Russians is that the U1 chip, which is necessary for more accurate positioning of gadgets, will not work in our country. At the same time, if you go to another country, this chip will function smoothly.
For example, a blogger went to Turkey and discovered in the “Locator” application, opposite your AirTag (there is also a U1 there), the “Find Nearby” button:
iPhones released for the US market received support for 24 communication frequencies and 5G mmWave, so they have a noticeable antenna at the end. There is no 5G support in Russia yet, but it may appear in the future.
Phones from the UAE and Dubai has a limitation on the operation of FaceTime, but this will not hurt Russians (if they do not use video calls in these countries, of course). For example, I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max from the UAE, and there are no problems with FaceTime. Smartphones from Japan have a limitation that does not allow you to take a photo without a characteristic sound (so that you cannot take a photo of someone unnoticed).
It’s sad but Chinese iPhones do not have eSIM support. Although the alternative is worthy: instead, the models are equipped with a tray for two SIM cards. Let us remind you that everything European Apple smartphones have a limit on the volume of sound in headphones – it is 10-12% lower than that of iPhones from other countries.
A nice bonus can be found in the box released for Brazil smartphone: some devices were equipped with a charger. All due to the fact that the local regulator has repeatedly fined Apple for refusing accessories.
Finally, until recently in a box iPhone for France a wired headset could be detected.
